scholarly journals Examination of Control Parameters for Medical Grade Insulin Pump

In this work, an attempt has been made to identify the appropriate parameters of Permanent Magnet Direct Current (PMDC) motor for infusion pump. PMDC motor plays important role in medical devices. In this, selection of parameters such as rotor inertia, armature resistance, armature inductance and back electro motive force constant is crucial that help to achieve the required speed. The proposed work uses PID controller (Proportional Integral Derivative) and LQG (Linear-Quadratic Gaussian) control algorithm to evaluate the parameters for transient response of the PMDC motor. It is demonstrated that the chosen parameters are able to reach the required speed with quick rise time by 0.691 seconds by employing LQG.

The present study considers the motion control of a cruise ship by using active stabilizing fins. One or two pairs of stabilizing fins are equipped to reduce the roll and/or pitch motions of the cruise ship. Each fin is controlled by algorithms based on proportional–integral–derivative (PID) and linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control. Numerical analysis of the wave-induced motion of a cruise ship with stabilizing fins is carried out by using the time-domain ship motion program which has been developed through this study. The resultant motion response as the performance of each controller is compared between different control algorithms. Based on the present simulation results, the stabilizing fin can be considered a good instrument to reduce pitch motion as well as roll motion of the present cruise ship model. The present results show that the PID control algorithm, a simple but practical algorithm, can be an appropriate method to reduce the roll motion in a moderate sea state, while the LQG control algorithm shows good performance in reducing not only the roll motion but also the coupled roll and pitch motions simultaneously in all of environmental conditions considered.

In this paper, an optimized Fractional Order Proportional, Integral, Derivative based Genetic Algorithm GA-FOPID optimization technique is proposed for glucose level normalization of diabetic patients. The insulin pump with diabetic patient system used in the simulation is the Bergman minimal model, which is used to simulate the overall system. The main purpose is to obtain the optimal controller parameters that regulate the system smoothly to the desired level using GA optimization to find the FOPID parameters. The next step is to obtain the FOPID controller parameters and the traditional PID controller parameters normally. Then, the simulation output results of using the proposed GA-FOPID controller was compared with that of using the normal FOPID and the traditional PID controllers. The comparison shows that all the three controllers can regulate the glucose level but the use of GA-FOPID controller was outperform the use of the other two controllers in terms of speed of normalization and the overshoot value.

[abstFig src='/00280005/15.jpg' width='300' text='Schematic figure of data-oriented GPC-PID controller' ] This paper presents a data-oriented technique for designing a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller based on a generalized predictive control law for linear unknown systems. In several control design approaches, a model-based control theory, which requires accurate modeling and identification of the plant, is used to calculate the control parameters. However, in higher-order systems and/or systems with an unknown time delay such as chemical industries and thermal industries, it is difficult to model or identify the plant accurately. Over the last decade, data-oriented techniques in which the online or offline data are utilized have been attracting considerable attention. Designing the controllers for unknown plants based on only the input/output data is the main feature of this technique. In this study, controller parameters are first obtained by using a generalized predictive control law with the data-oriented technique, and are converted to PID parameters from the practical point of view. The proposed method is validated experimentally using a real injection-molding machine. The results demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed method.

The power take-off system plays a vital role in the wave energy generating unit. Here, for studying the operation characteristics and methods of the hydraulic power take-off system, its basic model is built relying on the operating principles of every component. Meanwhile, a proportional–integral–derivative (PID) controller is also designed to regulate the rotational speed of the motor. Then, a test platform for the hydraulic power take-off system is constructed to verify the correctness of the model. Fortunately, based on model analyses, some useful results are found. Firstly, the PID controller has a visible effect on stabilizing the rotational speed. In addition, a group of optimal control parameters are obtained. Secondly, the influences of the displaced volume on the operation characteristics of the hydraulic power take-off system are found. Meanwhile, the optimal displaced volume is also presented by weighing the efficiency and stability. Finally, the operation modes and regions of the hydraulic power take-off system are obtained, and its rationality is also proved by a simulated running of the system. More importantly, these results can provide a reference to the design and operation of the hydraulic power take-off system.

In order to manufacture high-quality products it is necessary to regularly monitor the performance of the control loops that regulate the quality variables of interest. This paper describes a design scheme of performance-adaptive controllers which are based on the above control strategy. According to the proposed control scheme, the output prediction error is monitored regularly and system identification is initiated if this error exceeds a user-defined threshold. Subsequently proportional—integral—derivative (PID) parameters are updated for the new model. Optimal PID parameters are calculated based on the linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) trade-off curve obtained for the reidentified process model. The behaviour of the proposed control scheme is numerically evaluated by some simulation examples.

This paper is meant to design method for determining the optimal proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller parameters of plant system using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm and bacterial Foraging Optimization (BFO). There are several methods which are used to tune the controller parameters. They are categorized into two types known as classical methods and modern methods. In this paper the use of PSO method tuned the PID parameter to make them more general and to achieve the steady state error limit, also to improve the dynamic behaviour of the system. The performance and design criteria of automatic selection of controller constants are discussed below.

Abstract In 6 Degree of Freedom (DOF) parallel manipulator, trajectory tracking is one of the main challenges. To obtain the desired trajectory, the DC motor needs to generate optimal torque. So to obtain optimal torque, an optimized Linear Quadratic Regulator-Proportional–Integral–Derivative (LQR-PID) controller is presented in this paper. For optimizing the Q, R and gain parameters of LQR-PID controller, Squirrel Search Algorithm (SSA) is presented. In this algorithm, minimal cost function of LQR-PID controller is considered as objective function. The SSA based LQR-PID controller leads the motor to generate optimal torque that helps to attain the desired trajectory of 6-DOF parallel manipulator. Results of the work depicts that the SSA based LQR-PID controller achieves the best mean velocity, sum square error (SSE), integral square error (ISE) and integral absolute error (IAE).

Proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers are a classical control algorithm that are still widely used owing to their simplicity and accuracy. However, tuning the three parameters is difficult. No methods have been known to determine the exact ideal combination of the P, I, and D gains. Moreover, controlling a system that contains dynamics changes over time using fixed parameters is difficult. A self-tuning neuro-PID controller is applied to a balloon robot for indoor entertainment to enhance its accuracy in following a target trajectory. Our experiment shows the effectiveness of the neuro-PID controller over conventional hand-tuned PID controller.
